Amy Schumer is shutting down rumors about her Instagram cleanup.

The 44-year-old comedian took to the platform to explain why she deleted some of her old photos - and it had nothing to do with her weight loss. Sharing a playful selfie in oversized jeweled glasses, Schumer made it clear that she's proud of how she's looked at every stage of her life.

"Hey, media outlets, I didn't delete my old photos because they were pre-me losing weight. That's a narrative you created. I'm proud of how I've looked always," she wrote. "I have been working to be pain-free, and I finally am. My endometriosis is better. My back is healing. I no longer have Cushing syndrome, so my face went back to normal. I am grateful to be strong and healthy, especially for my son."

Schumer also took a moment to remind fans that social media doesn't define one's self-worth."Your Instagram is not your identity, it's a curation of what you want the world to see, and I feel great, strong and beautiful and it's been fun sharing that," she said.

She doubled down on the fact that her changes were about health, not vanity.

"I didn't purposely go on a 'weight loss journey,' that's a fine thing to go on. But my focus has been on health. I'm sure my weight will always fluctuate. I'm a perimenopausal woman on HRT meds. Wishing you strength and self-love," she concluded.

Schumer has been open about her health transformation and struggles.

Earlier this year, she revealed her experience with weight-loss drugs, including Ozempic and Mounjaro."I have this gene, GDF15, which makes you extremely prone to nausea, which is why I was so sick during my pregnancy," she told Howard Stern in January. "So, I tried Ozempic almost three years ago, and I was, like, bedridden. I was like, vomiting - and then you have no energy. But other people take it, and they're all good. So, God bless them."

She said the side effects were so bad she couldn't even play catch with her 6-year-old son, Gene David, whom she shares with husband Chris Fischer.

By March, the Trainwreck star found a treatment plan that worked, telling fans she was taking estrogen and progesterone along with Mounjaro."My symptoms of being in perimenopause have disappeared. My hair is fuller, my skin is better, I have more energy," Schumer shared. "I'm having a really good experience, so I wanted to keep it real with you about that."That same month, she told The Hollywood Reporter why honesty is so important to her: "Everybody on camera is doing this s---, I just wanted to be real about it."
